About This Tour:
Join us for the Brooklyn version of our popular NYC Underground Subway tour! It was the second borough to be connected to the IRT in 1908, so it is just as packed with hidden histories and abandoned stations as the subway in Lower Manhattan. Explore how the NYC Subway helped to connect and develop Brooklyn, New York’s most populous borough!
Please note:
One MetroCard swipe or OMNY tap will be required to enter the Subway (NOT included).
There are MANY steps up & down and the tour is unfortunately NOT recommended for people with mobility issues.
The Subway can be loud and crowded. There is limited opportunity to sit during the tour. Please wear comfortable shoes.
This tour visits areas open to the public and does not access any restricted areas.
Exact route and tour length may vary slightly based on the MTA’s weekend schedule.
